Electronic skin anticipates and feels touch from different directions for the first time

A research team from Chemnitz and Dresden has taken a major step forward in the development of sensitive electronic skin (e-skin) with integrated artificial hairs.

Applications range from skin replacement and medical sensors on the body to humanoid robots and artificial skin for Android.
